my hard drive wont boot, so i bought a new one and want to transfer the files using usb, well, my profile has a pasword on i so it wont let me access the files under my profile, i cannot get into the OS to remove the password, i would since i do know the password but it wont let me, i need another way to access these files, method program, PLEASE HELP !!

Boot into safe mode. While windows is botting press F8 then select safemode. Then go from there.


Note: I am fairly certain that botting into safemode gets around the password ;). Correct me if im wrong.

I believe it lets you log in as the Administrator, but you do need to know the password.
